Important Safeguards (cont’d)
10. Water, coffee or tea may overheat beyond the boiling point without appearing to
be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when
the container is removed from the microwave is not always present.

OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE
LIQUID.
a. Do NOT overheat the liquid
b. Stir the liquid both before AND halfway through heating
c. Do NOT use straight-sided containers with narrow necks
d. After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave a short time
before removing
e. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the
container
11. The contents of heating containers should be stirred or shaken and the
temperature should be checked before serving to avoid burns.
12. Cooking utensils may become hot from heat transferred from the heated food.
Potholders may be needed to handle the utensils.
13. Do NOT cover or block any openings on the microwave.

above the microwave, 4" at the back and 2" on each side of the unit.
6. Do NOT cover or block any openings on the microwave. Do NOT remove
microwave feet. Do NOT operate the oven without the glass tray, roller support
and shaft in their proper positions.
7. Make sure the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the
microwave or over any hot or sharp surface.

unplugged in an emergency.
